Discover the deep, earthy flavour of French Crapaudine Beetroot, one of the oldest known beet varieties, prized for its exceptional taste, rustic appearance, and rich culinary heritage. Grown in France, this traditional heirloom beet is celebrated by chefs for its intense flavour and naturally sweet, earthy character.
Recognisable by its rough, bark-like dark exterior, Crapaudine beetroot hides a tender, deeply coloured flesh with a concentrated beet flavour and subtle sweetness. Its dense texture and complex taste make it a standout among modern beet varieties.
Carefully harvested at peak maturity, this heritage beet is ideal for roasting, slow cooking, pickling, or shaving raw into salads for a bold, earthy bite. When roasted, its natural sugars intensify, creating a rich, caramelised depth of flavour.
Highly valued in French cuisine, Crapaudine beetroot represents traditional farming methods and authentic seasonal produce, offering a true taste of culinary history.
